So i had to play a friends birthday party on friday night. It was a joint party for him who turned 31 and a friend of his, this girl who's 24. I packed my bag taking a mix of hip hop joints to please all the under 25s and some boogie and funk for the older heads. My mate had his serato set up and played before me. It was the first time i had seen somone i know rock it and i was just floored.He left me no where to go playin most of the more obvious hip hop joints that i had packed and then even some of the disco boogie joints.For me it's game over. You just can't compete. The fifty or so joints i brought compared to the couple of hundred tracks he had on his laptop.So any one got any preferences over Serato and final Scratch??

    If you go to clubs to "watch" the DJ, you should
    probably just stay home and wash dishes anyway.

    What about tapes?
  • tehswedetehswede 31 Posts
    and "keep it real" by washing them by hand.

    I don't really understand what you just said but the only dudes I see mad are the dudes that lugged three flight cases up a bunch of stairs only to have some drunk bitch spill beer on their $150 record.

    carrying records is all good with me. that seems to be the most common serato excuse i encounter, and my dishes is clean. forreal hand scrub.

    Do Djs actually need an "excuse" to use Serato?

    Is it something to be ashamed of?

    let me put it like this...


    EAT MY DUST !!!


    seriously though, i light my cigarettes by rubbing 2 sticks together and that whole "cell phone" thing is just a fad.

    I am personally more concerned with the $150 records

    Why be afraid of new shit/technologies? I won't hate on a musical innovation cause innovation is what got us here.

    nope not mad. im just baffled that one can keep it so real you don't believe in toliet paper and prefer a corncob to wipe your hurt ass.

    duder, serato lets you keep all the information that's in the grooves of hundreds or thousands of records inside the grooves of just two records. game over IMO

    yes. i called back. holler

    no...but when i ask people why they don't play records anymore and use mp3's that's what they tell me. i personally don't like it, and everytime i have this discussion with a serato user, they tend to get very defensive. sure, it has many advantages as far as djing goes, but i won't use it. i will carry my records and play those.

    I think you will find DJs get defensive about their use of Serato when you say things like

    i would rather sit at home and wash dishes than watch someone play on serato.

    that' how i feel. next thing you know, technology will have songs mixing themselves and you won't need your serato. also, with serato anyone can dj...they may be no good, but as long as they have mp3's, a laptop, and turntables they can do their thing. back then you had to actually dig instead of swapping hard drives with your homeboy and getting dudes music.

    I don't mean to egg this on, Jonny. I just find this line of thinking funny.

    Okay back to work.
